Mike,
They will work on any receiver. As far as the remote lead is concerned,
just mount a separate switch on the power lead to the antenna. All you need
to do then is flip the switch when you want the antenna up and down.

I've been thinking about this for a while. I think its as simple as
mounting the replacement / providing power from the battery / hooking up
the signal cable and remote turn on from the receiver. I don't think it's
possible using the stock receivers cause they (mine at least) don't have a
remote turn on lead.

I haven't done it so I don't know for sure what is involved but I don't
think its too hard of a project.
